Anyone try out the cinnamon roll myo yet? I have two tubs at my apt that Im going to try when I get home tomorrow.

Someone just posted in the review forum, n00b.

My own properly formulated emphasis added.

It wasn't horrible however. It tasted fake, I don't know how else to describe it. I also have a 5lb tub of Truteins cinnabon protein, and I plan on sticking with Trutein.

honest question here.. i know theyre different type of blends.. but how did TNS came up with this awesome (or so they say) tasting trutein protonz with the macros it has, when XF seemed to have a rough time flavoring UP and keeping reasonable good macros and they're no noobs at it.. then out of nothing comes TNS with truteins magical macros and taste?.. mmmmmmmmmmmhhhhhhh

same with protean... people say its good tasting... and if you look at the macros they look very different to trutein..

up 2.0 is a meal replacement more than a straight protein. that's why there's up whey

its macros and even the additional creatine serve to emulate a red meat (minus the carbs)

didnt you watch my review of all the up 2.0 flavors???

mmmhh nope.. i dont think UP is targeted as a MR, other than protein and high cals it has nothing in there that might replace a meal.. its a good protein but the macros are most likely the result of the flavoring.. perhaps 22g protein 120cals was not possible to achieve for that UP taste?.. and seems fishy to me how TNS did it.. look at protean profile for another example

Look at the sources. Up 2.0 has whey isolate and micelluar casein. The calories come from the encapsulated sunflower oil.

Truteen uses most milk protein concentrate and milk protein isolate.

Now a more comparable would be UP 1.0

mmmhhh i see.. if the type of proteins is what makes the difference, how about protean.. cant remember how the blend looked like and dont know first hand if it really tastes good.. only that its close to calories to trutein... but still has double the fats and cholesterol than TT claims, even with the nucleotides and omega 3 of it.

If I buy milk from the grocery store and get it home only to realize that the jug is expiring tomorrow...I sure as hell am not driving to punch a farmer in the face and tip his cow over.

I'm iffy on the HeartHelp, tbh. Flaxseed (food) and fish oil will do what it claims (at a glance). But I'm going to look into it more, and don't mean to knock iForce down a peg or anything, as I'm a believer after trying HemaVol for my chesticle workout yestermorn. thumbsup

Up2.0 is technically a casein/MRP. Its profile is that way because it is designed to be that way, plain and simple.

You do realize that XF offers UP whey as well right? It has great macros for everyone wanting as few fats/carbs as possible.

That.

It is my understanding that UP2.0 was purposefully designed to be a complete meal replacement with a quality protein blend (51% micellar casein, 49% whey isolate) and health fats in addition to an amount of creatine monohydrate that might emulate the ingestion of red meat such as a steak (414mg).

It was designed with this purpose in mind; the flavoring system doesn't significant affect the macronutrient profile compared to the actual design of the product.

Take a look at Ultra Peptide Whey, which is also awesome-tasting (particularly, IMHO, the Arctic Lemonade and Mochachhino) but has a profile that matches almost all other wheys on the market.
